ALT5 Sigma, a company originally focused on chronic pain treatment, has pivoted into crypto payments and now plans to hold a treasury of Trump-backed World Liberty Financial (WLFI) tokens. The move mirrors how Michael Saylor’s Strategy (MSTR) became a bitcoin proxy stock after its CEO initiated a large bitcoin-buying strategy.
Key Points
- ALT5 Sigma will hold a WLFI-specific treasury, managing roughly 7.5% of the coin’s total supply.
- WLFI tokens, which were previously non-transferable, could start trading by the end of the month.
- The WLFI treasury follows the trend of companies holding large amounts of digital assets as balance-sheet alternatives.
Earlier this week, ALT5 Sigma (ALTS) raised $1.5 billion by selling 200 million shares, both new and existing. Some of the proceeds were used to acquire WLFI tokens from World Liberty Financial. In a private placement, World Liberty Financial, the lead investor in the share sale, provided $750 million worth of WLFI in exchange for ALT5 shares.
Following the investment, Eric Trump, son of former President Donald Trump, joined ALT5’s board, while WLFI cofounder Zach Witkoff—son of Trump-appointed Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff—became chairman.
WLFI has a total supply of 100 billion tokens. Initially non-transferable, trading could begin by the end of this month after a community vote approved it.
Investors should remain cautious, as copycat tokens—such as “Wen Lambo Financial”—have appeared on various exchanges using similar symbols. Meanwhile, shares of micro-cap ALT5 surged Wednesday after the announcement.
